Ingredients
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, orange zest, Dijon mustard, and honey until well combined.
- Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking constantly until the vinaigrette is emulsified and smooth.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust sweetness or acidity by adding more honey or citrus juice if desired.
- Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Shake or whisk before serving.
Tips
- For a creamier vinaigrette, add 1 tablespoon of plain yogurt or sour cream.
- This vinaigrette pairs well with mixed greens, avocado, and grilled chicken.
- If making ahead, leave out the salt until ready to serve to prevent the greens from wilting.
